Do we still have the freedom to go to the bathroom during commericals or must we remain glued to the TV once a commercial starts?
To: Jim Robinson
The bathroom is too dangerous anyway, they should be outlawed with this bill too.

Please let the Democrats support this overwhelmingly. Never mind issues like terrorism, the economy, etc. What will kill a party is to try to take tivo away from couch potatoes.
As for advertising in a tivo world, it will soon be that most advertising is in the form of product placement advertising. The ad and the content will merge, and therefore be inseparable.

I change the channel when commercials come on then flip back occasionally to see if the show came back on.

In the bill's fine print it says that if you need to leave the viewing area, you must do in on "your own time" - during the program.
I wonder if TiVo is gathering statistics on the prevalence of fast forwarding through commercials.
